A young Palestinian activist named Basel Adra has been resisting the forced displacement of his people by Israel’s military in Masafer Yatta, a region in the West Bank, since he was a child. He records the gradual destruction of his homeland, where Israeli soldiers are tearing down homes and evicting their inhabitants.

He befriends Yuval, an Israeli journalist who helps him in his struggle. They form an unexpected bond, but their friendship is challenged by the huge gap between their living conditions: Basel faces constant oppression and violence, while Yuval enjoys freedom and security.

The film was made by a collective of four activists as an act of resistance on the path to justice during the ongoing war in the region. It has won countless prizes at festivals across Europe, including 2 prizes at the 2024 Berlinale.

Docs Ireland applauds all the filmmakers involved for this vital and important work.

This screening is a Docs Ireland Irish Premiere.

Part of the Maysles Brothers observational documentary competition.
